Ming Dynasty: Pick up attributes from the battlefield to create the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 260 The Despair of the Lü Clan, the Embroidered Uniform Guard Enters the Eastern Palace!

Hear this!

Zhu Yunwen also breathed a sigh of relief.

He hadn't originally planned to lock Lady Lü in her palace before taking action, but Li Li said that the enemy must be completely defeated.

However, after hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Zhu Yunwen was completely relieved.

After all, if he were blamed for this, he himself might be fine, but the guards would be in trouble.

"Jiang Huan".

What are you still doing here?

"Why aren't you going yet?" Zhu Yuanzhang turned his head and said again.

"I accept the decree."

Jiang Huan did not dare to delay. He slowly stood up and quickly left the hall.

Wait until he leaves.

Zhu Yuanzhang then said, "Yunyi, get up."

"The three of us, grandfather, grandson, and granddaughter, will wait here for the Embroidered Uniform Guard to return from their investigation."

Hear this!

Zhu Yunwen slowly stood up: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

aside.

Zhu Biao remained silent, but his expression was extremely unpleasant, clearly indicating that he was experiencing a complex mix of emotions.

This time.

Although the Embroidered Uniform Guard had just passed by, Zhu Yunwen appeared remarkably calm.

They already knew how it would end.

East Palace!

It seems that nothing has changed.

The Imperial Guard remains stationed there.

only.

At that moment, a series of hurried footsteps came from inside the palace.

Hundreds of Imperial Guards dressed in flying fish robes and carrying swords rushed towards the East Palace.

The Imperial Guards stationed at the gates of the East Palace all looked on in astonishment.

"Jinyiwei?"

What are these lackeys doing here?

"Don't they know that His Highness the Crown Prince dislikes the Embroidered Uniform Guard the most? How dare they approach the Eastern Palace?"

"Do not."

"It feels like their destination is the Eastern Palace; they're running in our direction."

The Imperial Guards stationed at the palace gates couldn't help but whisper among themselves, filled with astonishment.

The Crown Prince disliked the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

This wasn't just something the Crown Prince knew; it was known throughout the entire court.

all the time.

Because of Zhu Biao, there are no Jinyiwei (Imperial Guards) within the Eastern Palace area. In fact, when the Jinyiwei are on duty, they have to go far away from the Eastern Palace, for fear of offending Zhu Biao.

But today!
It's clearly different now.

soon.

One hundred Imperial Guards arrived at the main gate of the East Palace.

Watching them arrive.

Numerous Imperial Guards quickly gathered, all armed with weapons.

"The location of the Eastern Palace is the Crown Prince's temporary palace."

"No one may enter without the Crown Prince's decree."

"Anyone who disobeys this order may be executed on the spot."

Chen Qing, a centurion of the Imperial Guard, stepped forward and shouted at the Imperial Guards in front of him.

In this regard.

These Imperial Guards did not show any fear. They were here today on imperial orders, and had even received the Crown Prince's approval.

but.

They didn't say much, but instead went their separate ways.

Jiang Huan, also dressed in the embroidered uniform of the Imperial Guard, slowly walked forward.

"By order of the Emperor and the Crown Prince."

"I came to the Eastern Palace to verify some things."

"Golden Guards, get out of the way immediately!"

Jiang Huan stepped forward and held up a golden token, which was the token representing Zhu Yuanzhang's identity.

Chen Qing glanced at the token and immediately recognized it.

"spread."

Chen Qing's expression turned slightly unpleasant, but he dared not stop the Imperial Guards who were carrying out the Emperor's decree.

Then he waved his hand.

He ordered all the Imperial Guards to retreat.

"Brothers."

"The Eastern Palace is the Crown Prince's temporary palace; we must not act recklessly," Jiang Huan solemnly instructed the Imperial Guards behind him.

"Yes."

All one hundred Imperial Guards answered the order in unison.

They then filed into the East Palace.

Jiang Huan was the last to leave.

Looking at these Imperial Guards rushing into the Eastern Palace.

The Imperial Guards stationed outside all changed their expressions drastically.

"Hundred households."

"What major event happened today?"

"First, Prince Yunwen's personality changed drastically, and now the Embroidered Uniform Guard has entered the Eastern Palace? Clearly, they are searching for something."

"Could it be that something really serious has happened at the Crown Prince's Palace?"

Many of the Imperial Guards turned their attention to their centurions.

"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask, and don't say what you shouldn't say."

"Just stay in your positions and fulfill your duties," Chen Qing said in a deep voice.

See this.

The Imperial Guards knew that something big had happened, so they dared not ask any more questions and returned to their posts to guard their posts, saying nothing more.

Inside the East Palace!
A large number of Imperial Guards rushed in, startling all the eunuchs and palace maids inside.

For a while.

The entire Eastern Palace was naturally filled with unease.

However, under Jiang Huan's command, the Embroidered Uniform Guard had seen many grand occasions. Although it was in the Eastern Palace, which used to be a forbidden area for the Embroidered Uniform Guard, it was different now that they had Zhu Biao's permission.

Moreover, the Embroidered Uniform Guards were very orderly, heading towards various parts of the Eastern Palace.

First, of course, is where Lady Lü is located, followed by the locations of Zhu Biao's various concubines.

now.

Outside the palace of the Lü family.

Li Li and several guards still held the palace gate firmly in place. Inside, besides the sound of banging on the door, there were repeated threats from Lady Lü.

"I will tell you."

"The Crown Prince will return soon. Once he does, I will inform him and have you audacious people torn to pieces."

"You all deserve to die."

"Open the palace gates now, and I may give you a lighter punishment," Lady Lü shouted loudly from inside the palace.

They tried every possible means to threaten him, hoping to get out.

But who is Li Li?

How many bloody battles did he experience in the army?
He had crawled out of piles of corpses countless times; the threat posed by the Lü family was no match for him.

"Miss."

"If I were you, I'd save my energy from shouting."

"Now that I've done it, I'm not afraid."

"The worst that can happen is death, right?"

"Furthermore, now that the young master has entered the palace to pay his respects, given what you have done to him, it is unclear whether it is I or the empress who will die."

"Anyway, one thing is for sure: if the Emperor finds out, you'll be in deep trouble."

"So you'd better just wait and see, don't waste your energy," Li Li said with a hint of sarcasm.

We've already done it, so what's there to be afraid of?
The Lü family.

That looks really impressive!

In reality, she could only bully young children; Zhu Yunwen was bullied by her when he was a child.

"Miss."

"The palace doors are too sturdy; they can't be opened at all."

"How to do?"

Inside the palace, all of Lady Lü's maids were in a panic.

Madam Lü looked grim, but she was helpless at the moment.

"I hope Zhu Yunwen never sees the Emperor, and I hope the Emperor won't believe his words."

"The Crown Prince... the Crown Prince will definitely not believe him." Lady Lü prayed silently in her heart. Besides this, she didn't know what else she could do.

And outside the palace.

"What are you doing in front of my mother's palace?"

"Why have you imprisoned my mother?" A voice rang out, and Zhu Yunwen shouted angrily at Li Li.

Li Li turned his head and glanced at Zhu Yunwen. He naturally knew who he was based on his attire.

but.

Li Li completely ignored it.

He's just a son of a concubine, not worth mentioning.

"Yun Wen."

"Don't worry about your mother, go... go find your maternal grandfather."

Upon hearing Zhu Yunwen's voice, Lady Lü felt as if she had heard the voice of a savior and immediately cried out.

only.

Zhu Yunwen may have no chance left.

Tread.

Tapping.

A series of footsteps approached.

A dozen or so Imperial Guards had already arrived in front of the palace.

"Big brother."

Several guards immediately turned their gazes to Li Li.

Upon seeing these Imperial Guards dressed in flying fish robes, Li Li smiled, a very happy smile.

"Young master, it's done."

Li Li looked excited.

The Embroidered Uniform Guard was directly under the command of the emperor.

The fact that the Eastern Palace is a forbidden area, and now that the Embroidered Uniform Guard has arrived, makes the meaning very clear.

"Your Majesty, do you wish to come out?"

"Then I'll grant your wish," Li Li said sarcastically.

Then waved his hand.

The two guards immediately removed the stick blocking the doorknob and opened the palace door.

It's also at this time!
Lady Lü immediately ran out, seemingly trying to find a way to change something.

But as soon as she came out...

Upon seeing the dozen or so Imperial Guards already standing outside the hall, Lady Lü's face turned deathly pale. Almost instinctively, she collapsed to the ground, completely terrified.

The Imperial Guards are here!
The meaning is already very clear.

The faces of the palace maids and nannies behind Lady Lü also turned deathly pale.

"Meet Madam."

Jiang Huan walked over slowly, and when he saw Lu Shi sitting slumped on the ground, he smiled faintly and clasped his hands in greeting.

When Jiang Huan arrived in person, Lady Lü's heart pounded wildly.

How could Lady Lü not know how formidable this commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard was?
Moreover, he was directly appointed by the current emperor.

This also signifies that Zhu Yunwen had successfully met with the emperor and received an imperial decree from Zhu Yuanzhang to send the Embroidered Uniform Guard into the Eastern Palace.

"Where is His Highness the Crown Prince?"

Lady Lü stood up shakily, looking at Jiang Huan with an extremely ugly expression and asked.

This was her last straw.

"His Highness the Crown Prince is currently in the Wenyuan Pavilion, with the Emperor and Prince Yuntong."

"Our Imperial Guards entered the Eastern Palace this time on the Emperor's orders, and with the Crown Prince's permission."

“Therefore, there is no mistake.” Jiang Huan said slowly.

This directly extinguished the last hope of the Lü family.

As soon as these words fell.

Lady Lü's face turned even paler.

She had lost all hope.

"Your Majesty... what is Your Majesty's decree?"

Lu forced down her unease and said with a glimmer of hope.

"This matter."

"It is inconvenient for this official to say."

"However, from today onwards, Your Majesty will be temporarily confined to this palace."

"Once the matter is investigated, the Emperor and the Crown Prince will make their own decision regarding the Empress."

"As for the palace maids around Her Majesty, I will take them with me." Jiang Huan said to Madam Lü with his fists clasped, his attitude was very polite, but every word seemed to carry endless murderous intent.

At least for the Lü family, this was an endless threat of death.

Upon hearing that the Imperial Guards were going to take her away, the palace maids behind Lady Lü immediately turned pale.

"Miss."

"I will come back to take care of you in my next life."

“All the blame lies with this servant, and has nothing to do with Your Highness. It was all done by this servant alone.”

The old woman behind Madam Lü shouted and then actually rammed into the doorpost.

Bang.

The old woman crashed into a pillar in front of the palace gate, blood immediately gushing from her forehead, and she collapsed to the ground.

"Mrs. Lin."

See this scene.

Madam Lü's face turned deathly pale, and she hurriedly called out.

"If it were bluestone, it might have died instantly."

“But hitting the doorpost won’t kill you.” Jiang Huan watched the old woman hit the doorpost calmly.

He's been through this many times and has experience with it.

Before falling into the hands of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, it was easy to seek death.

Once you fall into the hands of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, it will be difficult to ask for death.

but.

Jiang Huan didn't waste any more words and simply waved his hand: "Quickly find a doctor to treat her. If she lives, she can speak."

"Yes."

Two Imperial Guards stepped forward, intending to take the old woman away.

But Lady Lü had gone mad at this moment.

"Get out of my way, all of you get out of my way."

"She is my nanny, no one can take her away!" Lady Lü shouted frantically.

If this old woman were to come back to life and fall into the hands of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, it would be a terrible thing. Many things in the Eastern Palace, especially those concerning Zhu Yunwen, would then be impossible to erase.

But Jiang Huan was well aware of Lü's thoughts.

"lady."

"The Embroidered Uniform Guards are directly under the Emperor's orders, so please don't make things difficult for us."

Jiang Huan said in a deep voice.

He then gave his two subordinates a meaningful look.

Two of his men immediately pulled Lady Lü aside, and two more Imperial Guards arrived and carried the old woman away.

"Do you want to crash into it?"

Jiang Huan then turned her gaze to the remaining four palace maids.

Under Jiang Huan's gaze.

The palace maids kept their heads down, not daring to reply.

"take away."

Jiang Huan waved his hand.

Several imperial guards stepped forward, and the palace maids were immediately taken away.

"What exactly are you going to do?"

"What on earth did my mother do? How dare you be so audacious?"

"I want to see my grandfather, I want to see my father!" Zhu Yunwen shouted at Jiang Huan upon seeing the sudden change.

"If the Emperor and the Crown Prince wish to see the young master, they will issue an imperial decree."

"However, for now, please stay in your bedchamber, Madam."

Jiang Huan glanced at Zhu Yunwen, then spoke to Lady Lü.

They didn't say much at all.

Two Imperial Guards immediately sealed the door and even chained the palace gate shut.

"You two guard this place, and no one is allowed to open the temple gate."

"Except."

"You two will come with me to meet the other wives of His Highness the Crown Prince."

“There are still many things to ask those ladies about this method,” Jiang Huan said loudly.

These words were not only meant for his subordinates, but also deliberately spoken to Lady Lü.

"Commander."

"We'll all stay here, and we'll make sure no one gets close," Li Li said with a smile.

Jiang Huan glanced at them and naturally guessed that Li Li and his guards were Zhu Yunwen's men. He didn't say anything more and just nodded.

Subsequently.

The Embroidered Uniform Guard continued to operate in batches.

The Eastern Palace was sealed off.

He quickly summoned all the concubines, and everything proceeded smoothly.

Zhu Yunwen was completely flustered when he saw Lady Lü being imprisoned in the palace, along with the Imperial Guards and fierce-looking bodyguards around him. His face changed drastically, and he was at a loss for what to do.
